With the WSOP Main Event final table forming a week ago, the bookmakers have now had plenty of time to start compiling the betting odds for the final table.
Sportsbooks like Coral, Betfred and Ladbrokes are among the first to open betting markets on the Main Event, and the best odds so far look like this:
| Position | Player | Chips | Best Odds |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | Joseph McKeehen | 63,100,000 | 13/8 |
| 2nd | Zvi Stern | 29,800,000 | 5/1 |
| 3rd | Neil Blumenfield | 22,000,000 | 7/1 |
| 4th | Pierre Neuville | 21,075,000 | 15/2 |
| 5th | Max Steinberg | 20,200,000 | 7/1 |
| 6th | Thomas Cannuli | 12,250,000 | 16/1 |
| 7th | Joshua Beckley | 11,800,000 | 14/1 |
| 8th | Patrick Chan | 6,225,000 | 33/1 |
| 9th | Federico Butteroni | 6,200,000 | 33/1 |
| Number of entrants: 9 (6,420) | |||
The blinds will be 200,000/400,000/50,000 when play is resumed in November.
As always for the most part the chips have dictated the favourites, with huge chip leader Joseph McKeehen being the big favourite, while short stacks Patrick Chan and Federico Butteroni both being big long shots at 33/1.
Clearly former WSOP bracelet winner Max Steinberg is considered a force to be reckoned with, as despite being 5th in chips is priced at 7/1.
As yet no 'age of winner' markets, which have been popular in the past, have emerged. This is interesting because 61-year-old Neil Blumenfield and 72-year-old Pierre Neuville have significantly brought up the average age of the table this year, which usually is predominantly under 30.
The betting action usually comes in thick and fast closer to November, as we have learned more about the players and the ESPN hype machine has started doing its work. As yet Betfair have not opened a market, which also usually impacts the odds quite significantly.
Here is a reminder what they are playing for in November:
| 1st | $7,680,021 |
| 2nd | $4,469,171 |
| 3rd | $3,397,103 |
| 4th | $2,614,558 |
| 5th | $1,910,971 |
| 6th | $1,426,072 |
| 7th | $1,203,193 |
| 8th | $1,097,009 |
| 9th | $1,001,020 |
